shoot

Answer 2

who did the Washington post reporters link the break-in to? What evidence did they have to support this?

Answer 3

Post reporters were Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein. They uncovered information suggesting that knowledge of the break-in, and attempts to cover it up, led deeply into the upper reaches of the Justice Department, FBI, CIA, and the White House.

Woodward and Bernstein interviewed Judy Hoback Miller, the bookkeeper for Nixon, who revealed to them information about the mishandling of funds and records being destroyed.

Answer 4

Midnight of June 17, 1972, Frank Wills, a security guard at the Watergate Complex, noticed tape covering the latches on some of the doors in the complex leading from the underground parking garage to several offices (allowing the doors to close but remain unlocked).
He removed the tape, and thought nothing of it. He returned an hour later and, having discovered that someone had retaped the locks, Wills called the police.
Five men were discovered inside the DNC office and arrested. They were Virgilio González, Bernard Barker, James McCord, Eugenio Martínez, and Frank Sturgis, who were charged with attempted burglary and attempted interception of telephone and other communications.

This was a second break in. The first break in was the placement of recording devices, however were flawed and needed fixing thus causing this second break in and the unraveling of all of this.

Answer 8

who does Nixon consider his, "political enemies"?

Answer 9

Sorry was researching for my question earlier,

His "enemy list" consisted of people who were Nixon's political opponents. Purpose was to "screw" Nixon's political enemies, by means of tax audits from the Internal Revenue Service, and by manipulating "grant availability, federal contracts, litigation, prosecution, etc.

The IRS commissioner refused to launch any audits against the people on his list though.

Answer 14

Woodwards source was William Mark Felt Sr. who was at the time deputy director of the FBI. He went by the alias "deep throat" it wasn't released as public record of him doing so until 2005 I believe.

Answer 25

What did John Dean say about the Watergate break-in?

Answer 26

Dean cooperated with the U.S. attorneys telling them about the cover up.

He originally believed that he, Mitchell, Ehrlichman and Haldeman could go to the prosecutors, tell the truth, and save the presidency. Dean wanted to protect the presidency and have his four closest men take the fall for telling the truth.

Dean and other White House officials were implicated in the cover-up.
